I really agree with the alien one. I wish I had an alien but everywhere I look it's like 40$ for them.

Unpopular opinion here but I think SD Kronos is one of the coolest cultivars there is. That is probably mainly because it was created in my home state of New Mexico by Stephen Doonan about a decade (?) ago, ergo SD. Alien is pretty darn cool too though, as is Jaws.

B52 is a good one in my opinion, gets monster traps and good color, and is also low-priced with how mass-produced it is.

Why would you say it's unpopular? SD Kronos is a fine cultivar: hardy, vigorous, colorful, large traps. I managed to get 3 of them this year, and they're doing great.

Alien, all the way! I have wanted an Alien cultivar for years, but I have never tried to get one because I cannot grow flytraps for the life of me.

I would get one but it's 40$ just for one or usually out of stock

Yeah... Cultivars can tend to get expensive. I personally feel it is worth it though, if you know you cam grow them!

That there is the reason I don't have a darlington or a super fancy nep. I do have a beautiful cross from HollyHock. The tag has faded some. But it's an alata x talangensis. It's got a ostensibly like camo. ImageImage
